“processed_content”: “

The architects behind some of the most addictive platforms in history are attempting a course correction. Biz Stone (Twitter) and Evan Sharp (Pinterest) have secured new funding for a stealthy new social application aimed at solving a very modern problem: the mindless scroll.

Rather than competing for maximum engagement time, this new venture promises a tool to help users plan with intention. The move signals a growing fatigue with algorithmic feeds that drive outrage and anxiety. Stone explicitly referenced the “terrible devastation” caused by current social media models, suggesting this new app will focus on utility and well-being rather than ad-driven addiction.

While specific features remain under wraps, the involvement of such high-profile co-founders suggests a serious attempt to pivot away from the ‘attention economy’ toward something more constructive.
